Restaurant openings
Pulino's - the long awaited project between Nate Appleman and Keith McNally has opened and is accepting lunchtime reservations- we're looking forward to tasting their sure to be fabulous pizza - and what's a McNally spot without a perfect bathroom?

Above photo are candied beets from Marlow + Daughters. An unusual treat we couldn’t resist trying on one of our quick runs there recently and a perfect tie-in for beet week. These guys taste like most gummy candy, but even sweeter with that thick sugar coating on such a thin slice. Marlow + Daughters makes these guys in house, in fact we’re pretty sure we’ve never seen them anywhere else. Have you ?

Have a wonderful weekend
xoxo
